3.in the model veiwer go to the veiw tab at the top and select load background
4.find you background picture and load it
5.choose the character or creature you want to be on your signature
6.resize the screen for the model to signature size and position the model in a creatuve way on the screen and adjust the poses and animations till you find one you like
7.once everything is in place go to the file tab at the top and select "Animated GIF"
8. choose a name for the file and where you will save it then click OK
9.a screen will pop up with framerate information just click OK on this as it automatically sets it to optimum frame time
10.find the file on your system once its done and upload it to your usual image host and you can now use your new moving signature on the forums
This is a great guide, I hope to be doing one soon, I was always curious as I've seen such things before but never thought on how to do it. Heh. Thanks again.
as far s i have been with experimenting and checking the forums of the program site there is no way to have more than 1 model displayed at a time and therefore not a way to have more than 1 moving part on your sig
Yes, I also noticed the unfortunate quality loss. It happened on mine too. Since you're manually resizing the Model Viewer window you can't get it *exactly* the same size, so it's up to your best guesstimate. It's a shame you can't have a preset size window or something, but oh well. They still turn out pretty cool, I love yours Serotonin.
We might have to double-check with Mania concerning these animated signatures.
I really love the look of them, but it's been brought up that some people with slower connections have a lot of problems with the size of them to load, plus the cost for the forum bandwidth.
I retired mine for now, so just keep that in mind when making them.
